I guess all that it takes is a couple of major gunshops setting the price to where it should be and it will fix itself.

PMAG should be taking note on all of the gougers and refuse to supply them.

They are, unfortunately they only sell to 4 distributors and through their website. They have stated any vendor selling their product at higher than msrp will be prohibited from purchasing products from them. Of course the distributors are free to sell to whoever.Posted via Mobile Device

If no legislation restricts them, I believe we will see cheap ARs again, there will be a lot of never fired rifles hitting the market for sale, combined with the manufacturers trying to sell product and competing with themselves and private party sales, also combined with massive amounts of rifles being produced right now, it is safe to say that if no legislation occurs we might see some of the cheapest (low price not quality) ARs in history.

Of course this all wild speculation and wishful thinking on my part.Posted via Mobile Device

I think people will hold onto their over-priced AR's, and the manufacturers will produce enough to keep stores well-stocked. If they get over-stocked, the prices will drop and we should be back on track.

It nearly impossible to bring yourself to sell a $700 AR, imagine if you paid 2 to 3 times that?

I don't blame people for going crazy, I am just glad I had everything I needed before this hit. Aurora gave me a kick in the ass to buy a bunch of the little stuff and my AR-10 NationalMatch.

Manufacturers are not stupid. Production will stay at the normal pace, inventory tight, prices will stabilize but high.

The Colts and SIGs will probably remain higher now that they have seen what kind of price point they can set. But now that every Bubba with a garage and a drill press is manufacturing ARs the price pressure on lower end ARs will be too much to keep a JIMMYJOBOB-ARMS AR-15 at $1500 for long.
